Today I have the unique pleasure of continuing our “Christian Music” series with Peter Hilliard. Peter is a classical and opera composer with a robust background in church music. He says, “When you make art and music, you are exercising your humanity.” We overview several classical pieces from composures like Bach and Brahms, examining how they wrestled with things like faith, meaninglessness, and their own finitude.Peter's Website: https://www.peterhilliard.com/works-pageCapra Album - In Transmission: https://open.spotify.com/album/1BFg7IMfMpwygReNq1vLFQ?si=cKunuyI3SEiUpvlMQVHI8QBach B Minor Mass: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Johann_Sebastian_Bach_-_Mass_in_B_minor_-_Agnus_Dei.oggBach Art of the Fugue: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Kimiko_Ishizaka_-_J.S._Bach,_The_Art_of_Fugue,_BWV_1080_-_16_Canon_Per_Augmentationem_in_Contrario_Motu.oggVerdi Requiem:https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ICBSA_Verdi_-_Messa_da_requiem_parte_03,_Dies_irae.oggBrahms Requiem: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Johannes_Brahms_-_Op.45_Ein_Deutsches_Requiem_-_(05)_Ihr_habt_nun_Traurigkeit.oggBlessed are they that mourn: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Johannes_Brahms_-_Op.45_Ein_Deutsches_Requiem_-_(01)_Selig_sind,_die_da_Leid_tragen.oggBeethoven 9:https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Beethoven_Symphony_No.9_-_IV._Finale.oggBach Cello Suite:https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:JOHN_MICHEL_CELLO-J_S_BACH_CELLO_SUITE_1_in_G_Allemande.oggFollow Dan on IG: www.instagram.com/dancoke/Or Twitter: twitter.com/DanKochFaith deconstruction resources: www.soyouredeconstructing.com/Edited by Josh Gilbert ([email protected] -- he is accepting more work!)Join the Patreon for exclusive episodes (and more) every month: patreon.com/dankochEmail about the "sliding scale" for the Patreon: [email protected] Patron-only FB group: tinyurl.com/ycvbbf98Website: www.dankochwords.com/yhp.htmlJoin Dan's email list: www.dankochwords.com/Artwork by sprungle.co/
